About Faena Hotel + Universe
Set in the heart of the city's waterfront arts precinct, Puerto Madero, the Faena Hotel + Universe combines a sense of history with the vitality of modern Buenos Aires. Housed in a former granary dating back to 1902, the five-star urban hotel is steps from the heart of the city, the Plaza de Mayo, and the San Telmo colonial district.
Belle époque-style accommodations—inspired by Alan Faena, an Argentine fashion designer and real estate mogul, and designed by Philippe Starck—gourmet restaurants, and a 400-bottle wine cellar, among the largest in the city, are the framework for this stylish property. The hotel's Spa Faena Hotel + Universe is dedicated to spirituality and energy work, with rejuvenating amenities including a hammam and daily yoga.
During the day, guests can lounge around the stunning outdoor swimming pool. The Library Lounge hosts live and DJ music on select nights, and tango shows are performed on site daily.

At Spa Faena Hotel + Universe, guests can indulge in an array of relaxing and wellness treatments ranging from in-room and poolside massage services to Pranic Healing rituals. The spa has joined with Biologique Recherche to create a menu of results-oriented therapies like facials, hydrotherapy rituals, and body treatments. Waxing services, hair and nail care are also available. Signature staples include the Faena Experience, which begins with a session in the hammam and concludes with a four-hand massage.
A highlight of the 700-square-meter spa, also designed by Philippe Starck, is its marble Turkish hammam, where guests can spend quiet moments before, between, or after treatments.
Additional wellness options include the 85-square-meter fitness center, which hosts exercise classes in yoga, Pilates, aerobics, tango and Brazilian dance.
